Sniper Elite 4 Italia is upping the ante the previous entries in the series with more guts, literally. Judging from the trailer it seems there are now new melee kills that might even be short quick time events giving your eyeballs extra time to soak up all the gruesome detail. So far after the two proper sequels and the zombie spin-offs I’m not sure exactly where Rebellion is going to take this franchise but I’m along for the ride either way. One thing I will note, I do wish they would show the slow motion body deformation during environment and vehicle kills instead of the standard ragdoll effect. Examples from the trailer are when the box falls on the soldier and when the ship explodes. In the previous entries you do get a nice cutaway of all the major machine parts being ripped to shreds just like the humans but I think they should extend that out to the enemies caught in the blast wave as well.
Just like we’ve come to expect with a new entry in the Sniper Elite series, Sniper Elite 4 has a new DLC mission titled Target Führer where you’ll see if you can assassinate Hitler while he’s out and about on a U-Boat. You’ll also get some camo skins if you pre-order for $59.99, you know the drill, no pre-orders, and there’s even a Sniper Elite 4 Deluxe Edition which will come with the season pass for $89.99. I really liked these games in co-op and what really has me interested is this blurb from the new feature list “dedicated co-op modes for 2-4 players”. Now they do say campaign co-op for 2 players but I’m really curious to what this dedicated co-op mode is for 2-4 players. For all we know it could be standard horde mode with wave after wave of Nazi soldiers but that still would be a nice little treat. Sniper Elite 4 is coming out for PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One on February 14, 2017.
